"Burnout Paradise" is one of the most wanted games with backward compatibility for Xbox One. Unfortunately, the game developer, Criterion, said that the racing game is still in the works.

Over a year ago, Criterion Games announced that they were talking to Microsoft about bringing the "Burnout Paradise" to Xbox One. Even though there have been some development since the announcement on July 2015, fans are concerned whether the backward compatibility would happen. Criterion's answer to the question was "soon", Videogamer reported.

"Burnout Paradise" was a racing game released for Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 back in 2008. The developlers took the game into an open-world setting and gained popularity over the years.
